Each of the four molecular layers holds 10 measured entities (genes, transcripts, proteins, metabolites). For the current patient, every entity carries a z-score relative to a healthy reference population — how many standard deviations it deviates from normal. A gene, its transcript, the protein it encodes and a downstream metabolite are joined by a "central dogma" edge; within a layer, entities whose simulated correlation exceeds your threshold are also joined.
The panel computes a weighted multi-omics integration score, the same idea behind similarity-network-fusion approaches used in real precision-medicine pipelines:
R = 100 · Σ wᵢ·mean(|zᵢ|) / Σ wᵢ for i ∈ {genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics}
- Layer weight sliders — set how much each omics layer contributes to the fused risk score wᵢ; a layer at 0% is still shown but excluded from R.
- Correlation edge threshold — only within-layer entity pairs whose simulated |correlation| exceeds this value draw a connecting edge, showing how tightening the threshold sparsifies each layer's sub-network.
- Node color/size — hue marks the layer, node radius and glow scale with |z|, so outlier entities (large mutation burden, abnormal expression, elevated metabolite) stand out visually before any score is computed.
- Next Patient — swaps in a different simulated omics profile (healthy baseline, an oncogenic signature skewed toward genomics/proteomics, and a metabolic-syndrome signature skewed toward proteomics/metabolomics) so you can see how the same weights produce very different fused scores depending on where the real biological signal sits.
Real-world relevance: oncology and rare-disease programs increasingly integrate genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolomic panels per patient rather than reading any single layer alone, because a single-omics test can miss a signal that only shows up as a correlated shift across layers.
